That's what I call a VERY deep tissue massage.


Yikes.

I'd like to know how they cut those complex shapes into the book without tattering the pages.

The Medium is the Massage? I wonder what that's about. Why is a massage book shaped like a gun? I'm so confused. Maybe he meant "massacre."

Maybe it was The Medium is the Mascara?
Although you generally apply it with a wand, not a gun

Lasers?

Marshall McLuhan had a number of interesting insights into the media and culture. The title of the book is a play on his original statement that "The medium is the message".

If you want to get that deep, the image above could be seen as a comment on violence in the media.

maybe. I'd expect some charring/browning on the edges though.

There's no charring on those laser cut cards.

I think you two are right. I'd seen laser cut wooden bookmarks with the browning on the cut edges, but this place will cut up books for you with their laser cutter. Pretty cool, actually. The edges of their work isn't browned either.

I'm guessing the old fashioned way that spies did it... a template and razor blade.

I just saw this below the tip mug:

Friggin sharks?
